Hawthorn will take on Melbourne this weekend in the club’s first replacement game of the season.

It is the first of four replacement games for the year all set to be played against traditional Victorian rivals.

With Hawthorn playing four of its allocated 11 home games in Tasmania, replacement games allow Hawks members general admission access into the four allocated replacement games in Melbourne. 

Members are able to gain general admission access by scanning their membership card at the MCG gates.
